We mercilessly judge the papery gifts kindly sent to us by the gaming industry, like big rotten children

Best wishes from... Rare
This is more like it! A roaring fire, Christmas decorations, Rare's character roster kitted out in festive gear, all opening presents... Hang on, does that stocking say KI3? Killer Instinct 3? No... They wouldn't. Would they?

Score: 9

Visuals |10 |A lovingly crafted Christmas scene, making excellent use of Rare's creations
Festiveness |9 |Stockings, decorations, presents - what more can you ask for?
Composition |9 | We're a little unnerved by Banjo's face, but the KI3 hint is very cool
Effort |9 | No photoshopped-nonsense, this, just pure skilled artwork. Watching, Ninty?

Score: 9
